- Row Styling — applies to all rows
- Focused Row Styling — applies to the row that has focus
- Row Hover Styling — for standard Autocomplete controls (pxAutoComplete) only — applies to a row when the mouse pointer hovers over it
- Match and Highlight — applies to matching text in the search results
- Category Styling — applies to the category headings within the search results
For standard Autocomplete controls (pxAutoCompleteonly, select the Enable row banding options check box to specify Text, Border, and Background of Odd and Even rows.
